Study will encompass content of undergraduate courses AE 2000 and AE 3050, and extend to an applied research project and expanded theoretical reading in art education. Readings, research, discussion, studio production, and classroom observations will provide the framework for the study of art education as a discipline incorporating studio production, aesthetics, art history, and criticism. Art materials health and safety regulations will be examined. A 20-hour school observation component is required. Offered Fall term only.
